Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N324SH, is a Boeing 737-8 MAX built in 2020 with manufacturer serial number 44476. The aircraft is owned and operated by American Airlines, Inc., and carries a United States registry (US), reflecting its primary commercial base within the U.S. market. The record for this specific airframe shows it as a current fleet asset of American Airlines, Inc. with standard operator registry entries; no public record of prior owners or lease returns was provided in the supplied data. Condition and valuation details are not published in the supplied dataset.
The cabin on this airframe is configured in a two-class, high-density layout consistent with typical American Airlines MAX 8 installations, yielding 172 seats in an arrangement approximating 16 business / 24 economy comfort / 132 economy. Avionics are operator-fit and listed as Collins/Rockwell Collins (airline fit varies), indicating airline-specific flight deck and systems integrations rather than a single factory-standard avionics suite. In regular service, this Boeing 737-8 MAX is suited to domestic and near-international route structures that match its 3,500 nm range and high single-aisle capacity, operating from American Airlines’ U.S. base network. Maintenance considerations for this individual aircraft follow airline maintenance programs for MAX-series airframes and the LEAP-1B engine type, including operator-specific avionics support and component tracking.
The Boeing 737-8 MAX occupies the single-aisle medium-haul market niche, offering improved fuel efficiency and range relative to previous 737 NG models. With two CFM International LEAP-1B engines producing 28,690 lbf each, it competes against Airbus A320neo-family types on similar short- to medium-haul trunk routes. Demand from mainline carriers for high-density two-class variants like this one remains strong for network carriers seeking fleet commonality; resale and maintenance considerations hinge on engine shop visits, MAX-series structural checks, and operator-specific avionics installations.
